Blog Features !

Normally by now I have posted a new frugal craft project, but to be honest time got away from me this week and I didn't finish my project.  I'm getting ready to open a new Etsy shop in the next couple of months selling vintage jewelry, findings & beads and more of my great flea market and estate sale treasures!  I'm really excited about this new little shop and pretty much got all wrapped-up in it this week.

But.... on another good note I'm feeling a lot of blog love this week having my blog and Etsy shop featured on tow separate blogs this week.  I'm truly honored and thrilled!

Kelsey over at Poofy Cheeks is doing a crafting space series and featured my new Shabby Chic crafty space this week!  I hop you pop over and give my little feature some love and if you have a crafting space that you'd like to share please contact her.

And then over at Home Spun with Love Kristen featured my blog and several of my favorite craft projects, and my litte Etsy Jewelry shop!

I hope you stop by to visit both of their crafty fun blogs.

Oh... and don't forget to make a comment to enter the Bead Knead Gift Certificate Giveaway, last day to enter is this coming Wednesday.

Gift Certificate Giveaway from BeadKnead!

I have a wonderful new Giveaway this week!!!!  As you've probably guessed I love..... beads, and all sorts of beads!  And lucky for me I have a wonderful Etsy friend who has a beautiful bead shop - BeadKnead and luckily for one of my readers she is offering a $10.00 Gift Certificate to her shop,which is good until June 1, 2012.

                             

   

Here is a little about her and her shop:

I believe that life is all about how we handle plan B as in BEADS and BAUBLES.  So I trusted my crazy idea of wish, hope and dream and took a chance.  This is where BeadKnead became a reality.  I took Plan B and made it happen.  Welcome to my world of Czech glass beads, gemstones and of course baubles.  No matter what;  I believed in myself and my passion to do it with enthusiasm.  I was taught to embrace change and expect miracles.  I see the beauty of art in everything around me.  I always seem to be amazed at the exploding brilliance on the facets of fine cut beads and stones or the rainbowed palet of their remarkable color; and can never seem to get enough of it.  I look for new trends, colors and textures in the glass bead business to bring you, my customer the best the industry has to offer.  In the end trusting my heart the becoming of BeadKnead was the smartest thing I have ever done.  Here friendships and relationships have been born and created.  Thank You for stopping by, hopefully in my shop you too can fill your need to create.

This giveaway will run Feb. 7 - 14th!
